Lanterne 0.3.0 is now making its way up to extras-devel. The big addition this time is the ability to load text files into the Morse code transmission window. It's pretty bare-bones right now, you just click on "Select Text File" and choose a file. (By default, it looks into the directory "/home/user/MyDocs/.documents".) (By the way, the contents of the text editor are _not_ stored persistently.)

If you prefer, you can still just type directly into the text editor box to create a message.

You can also now pause a running transmission by hitting the "Pause Transmission" key.

I've also added a warning message at the start of the app, telling users not to look directly into the flash LEDs. This warning should only show up once.

And, I did finally manage to reproduce that rotation-button error. I've made a change that I think will fix it. (In any case, it looks like Qt is not very happy about managing UI components during a rotation, so more problems may crop up. I suppose it might be better to catch the signal that the app is rotating, and just shut down the entire UI until the rotation finishes...)

As always, beware of new bugs! Thanks.
